    LET Down?

    It wouldn't be the first time they've banned user IPs by mistake after an extended DDoS attack.  My IP was blocked last year (and is still blocked).  I haven't had any problems accessing LE* from my remote desktop at Hetzner (bgp.he.net on the other hand thinks I'm a bot when I access it from...

    Webmin exploit on the loose!

    The updated Squeeze bash is in the LTS repos.  Anyone who is using Squeeze and isn't running LTS at this point is an idiot and a walking target. deb http://http.debian.net/debian squeeze-lts main contrib non-free deb-src http://http.debian.net/debian squeeze-lts main contrib non-free

    Hungary Proposes New Tax on Its Internet Traffic

    I'm already reflecting on the good old days back when I launched my first website 20 years ago. :) It would be reasonable if it were any country other than Hungary imposing the tax.  Hungary already has the highest VAT tax rates in the EU at 27%. Probably true, and over here in the US things...

    LET Down?

    I can only access LEB for 5-10 SECONDS before my fingers hit the back button (might have something to do with 4 out of the last 5 offers containing the word Buffalo) :)

    The cesspit / chat thread.

    Dacentec New Price Schemes - Lowers Costs - Rent Only?!

    That'll never happen due to all of the costs involved in buying property and building a datacenter in the US.  Hetzner is one of the very few hosting companies that not only own their own "datacenters"  but they also own the buildings the datacenters are located in and the land the buildings are...

    Your highest uptime servers

    My OVH servers only get rebooted when they release a new production kernel (ftp://ftp.ovh.net/made-in-ovh/bzImage/ )...last new one was 3.10.23-3 on March 18th.  Their servers are cheap but they're also some of the most reliable servers I've ever rented.

    LET Down?

    Pro is also for sites that are selling ad space.  BuySellAds charges sites a hefty fee to use it  "$499/month for up to 25 million ad impressions, $0.02 CPM after that."  It includes quite a few more features than the regular BuySellAds (monetizing emails, rss feeds, Twitter feeds, apps...

    LET Down?

    BuySellAds Pro plays nice with SSL but it's probably out of their price range https://pro.buysellads.com/publishers Because DNS management wasn't on the activity list at the daycare center.  These are the same idiots who last year were running both their nameservers on the same IP/same server...

    LET Down?

    I don't think they're subscribing to the $200 plan with real protection.  Even if they were CloudFlare isn't going to help when you only use it on www.lowendtalk.com and expose the IP for lowendtalk.com.

    LET Down?

    They added CloudFlare to lowendtalk.com

    LET Down?

    What exactly is the point of paying for a CloudFlare plan with DDoS protection when you advertise your IP address to every Tom, Skid, and Harry? CloudFlare IPs for www.lowendtalk.com Real IP for lowendtalk.com Sheer f**king genius.

    Why to suspend spamvertised website based on an SPAMCop email?

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spamvertising Spammer's rarely, if ever, send their advertising email from the same server as the website they're advertising.  It's almost always sent from "someone else's server". It doesn't matter whether the contents of the website are legal/legit. If they're...

    LET Down?

    I must have missed this.  When did they get their own data center? The people who run datacentermap.com must be CC haters because they don't have them listed.

    Your thoughts on using nginx and apache together?

    I use the nginx /apache (mpm-event + php-fpm) combo.  There is a significant decrease in load for higher traffic sites but if you have a site that has relatively low traffic you probably won't notice much of a difference in performance,  load, or RAM usage. The proxy server feature in Nginx...
